Abstract:
One megastigmane derivative 1, one methyl jasmonate glycoside derivative 2, and two C-28 steroids with 3β,5β-cis-dihydroxyl conformation 3 and 4, together with eight known compounds 5-12 were isolated from the 70% ethanol extract of linseed meal (Linum usitatissimum L). Structures of 1-4 were elucidated by spectroscopic methods including NMR, HRESIMS, and Mo2(OAc)4-induced CD. The absolute configuration of 1 and 3 was determined by observing their induced circular dichroism after addition of Mo2(OAc)4 in DMSO. The absolute configuration of 2 was determined by NOESY experiment together with conformational analysis. The structure of 4a was corrected as 4 by an extensive analysis of its 1D and 2D NMR, in combination with the Mo2(OAc)4-induced CD in DMSO. The effect of all the isolates on nitric oxide (NO) generation by stimulated macrophages was evaluated, and none of them showed active.
